Morana
A quiet death beneath the water
In ancient Slavic beliefs, the cycle of death and rebirth plays a prominent role. This is why the death of the Goddess Morana at the end of each winter is also considered the rebirth of Spring. Each year, a ritual is held to celebrate the arrival of Spring, during which the participants sing traditional songs and throw effigies of Morana into the water.
However, only those skilled in the art of thaumaturgy know that there's more to these rituals than meets the eye. This is because Morana is also a powerful Salutor, but she is not easy to meet. You can try to find her lurking just beneath the water's surface, waiting to take a surprised victim into her cold and deadly embrace.
News of drownings at a specific spot along a river bank can be a clear indication that Morana hides nearby. She excels in fogging the minds of her prey, making them more susceptible to her attacks.
Thank you for reading and don't forget to check out the GameRant articles for more information :)
Take care,
